Oscar Escalada
Milonguera (Argentina)
The Vice President of the Argentine Association for Choral Music and a music professor at the Conservatory of La Plata, Oscar Escalada is in constant demand as a choral conductor and clinician, and his compositions enjoy frequent international performances. In Milonguera he uses nonsense words to heighten the effect of the piece’s tango-like rhythms.
